Taupo Christmas Eve. Got a little over 460 kays to that tank - the best I've done so far! Was a little bit touch and go as my fuel gauge is incredibly dodgy. Regularly and randomly drops to E all the time - even with a full tank. Ahhh, the joys of old cars! It's funny; having the missus in the passenger seat seems to help with fuel economy...
